you should start off with a photosynthetic one, they are very easy to keep and grow like crazy. next time you come by, i will show you a few examples in my tank.

I have one in my tank that I've had forever. Photosynthetic, brown, and has gsp growing around its trunk.

I've got it tucked in the corner, it's about 20" tall or so. Get with me if if you're interested in giving it a shot.

the ones from the Caribbean tend to be photosynthetic for the most part. A lot of them are brown or purple. They will grow like weeds. Start small especially in a shallowish tank
